RBCC Partner n3D Signs U.S. Distribution Agreement

NOKOMIS, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Rainbow Coral Corp. (OTCBB: RBCC) received word this week that the revolutionary technology developed by its partner, Nano3D Biosciences (n3D), is set to begin penetrating the U.S. marketplace.

Nano3D announced recently that it signed a distribution agreement with St. Louis-based scientific products distributor MIDSCI to sell its revolutionary BioAssembler product line in the multi-billion-dollar U.S biotechnology market.

The BioAssembler is a ground-breaking system that allows researchers to culture cells in three dimensions, creating lifelike tissues that are incredibly similar to those found within the body. Under the new agreement, MIDSCI will market and sell BioAssembler technology to life sciences researchers in pharmaceutical, biotech, academic and government laboratories.

"With MIDSCI's focus on the cell culture market in the U.S. and the capabilities of its sales and marketing organization in addressing the needs of the life science researchers in a variety of market segments, this distribution partnership will provide even easier access to our 3D cell culture (technology) for researchers in the U.S.," said n3D President and CSO Dr. Glauco Souza.

It's exciting news for RBCC, as well. The company signed a joint venture agreement to help develop and market the BioAssembler last year. There has been an explosion in interest in n3D's magnetic levitation technology since it became the subject of a feature article in Nature, the world's premiere science journal.

"This deal with MIDSCI is a major step forward in turning this revolutionary technology into the global standard in cellular research," said RBCC CEO Patrick Brown.
